The Safecracker (1958) follows the journey of Colley Dawson, a skilled lock expert who finds himself drawn into a life of crime after crossing paths with Benny Carfield, a dishonest antique dealer. Dawson begins to steal valuable items, with Carfield handling the sales, allowing Dawson to maintain a lavish lifestyle with a minor film actress named Vi. However, Scotland Yard eventually apprehends Dawson, leading to a ten-year prison sentence. Two years later, during World War II, the War Office seeks Dawson's expertise to crack a complex safe in a German-occupied château in Belgium. The safe contains crucial lists of Nazi agents operating in Britain. In exchange for reducing his remaining prison sentence, Dawson agrees to the mission. Along the way, he becomes entangled with Irene, the daughter of a local resistance leader.
